sharpening

When I took up woodworking and bought some chisels a while back, I got slightly disappointed. The chisels were OK, but not as sharp as I would have liked. I have three vintage Stanley planes. Two of them were really sharp upon arriving, but they had also become duller over time. So it was time to get into sharpening

After some investigation I bought diamond plates as they were an easy start. I also bought a jig to hold chisels and plane blades.
